About Rippy's Honky Tonk

Rippy's Honky Tonk is a lively restaurant with multiple floors and bars, offering a laid-back atmosphere and excellent service. Customers recommend trying the pick 2 meal with smoked wings. The menu features Rippy's Famous Ribs and Barbeque, which many say are some of the best baby rack ribs they have ever had, along with smoked sausage and smoked Pick 'EM (3). Despite a slight discrepancy in pricing, the pulled pork and sweet potato waffle fries were enjoyable. The place is family-friendly with great musicians to entertain, including live bands that can keep guests listening for hours. The upstairs area hosts a band that provides great music, and customers are encouraged to tip the bands and buy a song. The menu also has clear gluten-free labels for those with dietary restrictions. Parking near Broadway can be tricky, so an Uber is recommended. The restaurant offers a quieter side for eating, but the lively music and drinks create a fun experience before heading down Broadway. Recent reviews highlight the good food, especially the baby back ribs and smoked wings, and the enjoyable live music, with a vibrant Honky Tonk vibe. The location at the start of the Honky Tonks is perfect for good music and atmosphere. Visitors note that security asks guests to park their DSLR cameras, but camera phones are allowed. Overall, Rippy's remains a favorite spot for a fun, down-home Honky Tonk experience with good drinks, music, and a lively environment.

Im normally one to take a dozen pictures everywhere we go but was just caught up in the moment at Rippy's and didn't take any! We started our Saturday 10/4/25 almost as soon as they opened and it was great from the start. The food was some of the best on Broadway, the band was great, our waitress was awesome and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

That's just the first of two reviews earned in the same day. After all day on Broadway and a night at the Grand Ole Opry, we headed back...read full review
